Children are not considered pandemic drivers to open school

April 20, 2020

The Federal Council plans to reopen the schools in May. Because so far there have hardly been any children in Switzerland who have COVID-19. However, science warns against too quick conclusions.

The bustle in the home office has come to an end: From May 11, the children of the lower level are allowed to go back to school. This is what the Federal Council’s roadmap for easing the corona measures wants. The reason for this step by Health Minister Alain Berset made one listen: “Young children hardly get the disease and transmit it less.”
